Description:

Summary:

Placing orders on the wrong patient errors is a major Health IT Safety issue. We will review the Wrong-Patient Retract-and-Reorder (RAR) Measure, the first and only health IT safety measure endorsed by National Quality Forum (NQF #2723). The Wrong-Patient RAR measure has made possible a new area of research that has led to new evidence for preventing these errors, and has informed national and international patient safety guidelines and regulations.
